VCU ATHLETICS UNVEILS NEW “FACEBOOK FRIDAYS” PROMOTION

Sep 01, 2011

RICHMOND, Va. – Instead of killing time at work looking through your friend's album of their kid for the 19th time, VCU Athletics want to give you a little distraction on Facebook.

The Rams are unveiling a brand new promotion called, "Facebook Fridays." On select Fridays throughout the 2011-12 academic year, the Black & Gold will post a specialized code for all the people that have "liked" the VCU Athletics Facebook page (www.facebook.com/govcurams).

The promotion will start this weekend for the 2011 VCU Men's Soccer Tournament out at VCU's Sports Backers Stadium.

VCU will take on cross-town rival Richmond on Friday at 7:30 p.m. and Elon on Sunday at 2:30 p.m. Coastal Carolina will precede the Rams on both days, playing Elon on Friday and Richmond on Sunday.

Ticket buyers can either enter the code "RamsFB" online or use it in person at the gate on Friday. This code is part of "Facebook Friday" and will offer fans a Buy One Get One Free offer, getting them into Friday's game and then Sunday's match for free.
